You'll enjoy watching ships pass from the double verandas and appreciate the fine details such as brick and wood floors, natural light pouring through transom windows, exquisite crown moldings, and the charm of interior plantation shutters throughout the home. Exterior shutters, formal garden, pocket doors, a cozy fireplace, and grand staircases add to the home’s timeless sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. Its solid block and Savannah Gray brick construction is peerless. Convenience is key with modern amenities like an elevator, a large laundry room, a dedicated workout room, spray foam insulation, epoxy garage flooring, outdoor shower, multi-purpose closets on the main level, and two garages with three ground-level storage rooms for golf carts, kayaks, seines, and fishing and sporting gear.
